"The true Demons aren't them,"  Hiruzen, panting heavily, and half-asleep came trodding up to the gate, an over-sized aquarium strapped oddly to his back, in an effort to keep the water in. It proved to be... Mostly successfull. Either way, the young Oto shinobi was making his way past the large gate, too tired to even be in awe of it. "C'mon, you guys... What's taking you so long...?" "No... He's right in front of you." {Enter, Hiruzen~!}

(OOC: Lol, Lance, you didn't need to bring the aquarium with you rofl .)
As Hiruzen stopped to take a rest in front of the gates, Kageko landed lightly next to him, breathing slightly heavily from jumping through the trees for fun. Apparently, unlike Hiruzen, she was having fun as they made their way to Konoha. "Sorry Hiru-chan," she apologized with a smile while stretching her arms a bit, "I just wanted to have a bit of fun." Kageko took in a deep breath of fresh air, although she was from Otogakure, she had often traveled to the Fire Country with her brother when she was younger and played in the trees and forests that were found throughout the country.
With the festival long over, Kageko had her usual attire back on, which included her jacket, a shirt, a mask that was pulled down at the moment, a pair of gloves, and her usual assortment of weapons and equipment. With her hood down, Kageko's Sound Village headband was apparent, notifying the guards at the gate that she was one of the sound villagers that were sent to become a part of the Leaf Village. On her back were the usual fans along with a pair of normal chakrams in the same color as her personal ones. Hidden by the sleeves of her jacket, Kageko had a number of hidden weapons and her personal chakrams, which had been shrunk to the size of key chains. Finally, she also had a kunai holster and a projectile holster with numerous scroll holsters in various places. All in all, she looked the same as she did before, except for a couple of large bandages over her cheek. After finding out that the jinchuuriki of Kyuubi could be singled out by their whisker-like markings on their face, Kageko had started wearing two large bandages over each cheek to hide her whiskers.
(OOC: By bandages, I mean the sticky kind, not the wrap-around kind.)

Castiel was seen walking along the broad pathway, heading towards the village's opened gates. He had his headband covering his perfectly normal eyes, however, he had been training them to see how it would be if he fought in the dark, or if he ever lost his sight. He hoped to be able to fight people on all sorts of fields of battle, so he would train them all at different times, however, while doing those different exercises, he would be blind. He was using sound to tell where things were, however he had not master echo location to the slightest, so he was using a metal cane to slap around on the ground, allowing him to feel around for where the ground was. He managed to come to the guards where he was stopped by them. They took his headband off, and he closed his eyes. They replaced it with one from the Leaf, as Sound had been closed down for some mysterious reason. He continued to walk forward, making his way into the village, with the tick tick and click click of his cane. There was something special about the cane however. It had a pointed end that was retractable, making it a deadly weapon when in battle.

8 kilometers away from Konoha~
A very soft static discharge heralded the arrival of the shinobi amongst faint arcs of electricity. His anatomy materialized in a blurring of lines that threw up a heavy cloud of dust around his feet. His cloak, thrown by the accelerated movement from the Shunshin, lazily drifted back to it's default position around the youth's body but not before revealing the black and tan arrangement of clothing on his body. The crimson cloak held a high open collared that reached the chin of the fair skinned shinobi. This chin, studded with a pair of sharp piercings, rose slowly as Kingu- no Mattei- regarded the Leaf Village from afar.
Normally a shinobi would be unable to determine the features from this distance but Mattei was not looking for Konoha's physical features. Instead his ringed orbs regarded the Leaf Country through a powerful veil that obstructed a world of spiritual and natural energies that warped the perceptions of depth and space to it's observers. Solid matter was visible in grayscale but the fluctuating energy patterns were bright and vivid colors that contrasted againt physical features. It was this latticework of energies that filled and surrounded Konoha in multiple and vast chakra/spiritual patterns that stood out againt most of the worlds that allowed Mattei to see Konoha from his current perch. He detected some very concentrated chakra signatures and detected a deep ancient malice in one of them, enough to make him cringe. It was almost obscured by a smaller, gentler chakra pattern but he noticed traces of the malevolent energy in the secondary source.
This rose Matte's interest in the village considerably but he knew he must be wary. The trasnfer process from Kumogakure ro Konohagakure would be hectic at best and it would be awhile before all his information made it's way to the village. Although at heart he believed himself to be rogue using the Leaf Village's resources would be beneficial to him at best. Especially now that an interest subject had come his way. His mane of silken black hair was uplifted by an envious wind that traced it's way through his smooth locks and the ninja closed his eyes to bask in it's warmth. It was tough adjusting to this air since he was so used to the chillier, high regions of the mountain ranges.
"Well, I believe it's time for me to move on,"
His body would dissolve into swift flowing lines and the wind would warp around his presence as a surge of chakra accelerated his physical molecules to dangerous levels in a brief moment, propelling him directly towards Konoha's gates after eight brief stops. Nearly invisble discharges of electricity and the crackling of faint static once mroe warned of his arrival less than half a second before he materialised at the gates. The guard, a team of well trained Chuunin and competent Genin, were able to detect his presence quickly enough to possibly even capture him had he held hostile intent. This was exspected however as he was still a Chuunin but he did feel better when a few of the less experienced Chuunin raised there eyebrows at the sight of an elevel year old boy wearing a Cloud headband.
"Formerly Kingu Shisui currently Mattei Tenson, Kumogakure refugee reporting for duty. Rank? Official Chuunin. Age? Eleven,"
With these words even the Jounin were surprised at Mattei, obviously a prodigy. However a lone Jounin was staring at his eyes, the ringed Rinnegan of myth. After Mattei handed over his legal documents and papers and spent nearly an hour going through processing he was granted a Leaf headband and his official Chuunin gear in a duffel bag. The money transferred from Kumogakure to Konohagakure was enough to grant him his own home apart fromt he free apartments granted to Shinobi but he still had his own. The allowance granted to him by his family and the daimyo allowed him enough money to purchase enough supplies and resources to outfit his room and apartment if nessecary. With a polite nod he exited the gates and strode towards his new home(s).

Kageko watched quietly as familiar faces and unfamiliar faces gradually arrived at the gates while Vincente still had yet to show up. she couldn't help but wonder to herself. Shortly after leaving Oto, the two of them had split up, Vincente to do some stuff by himself and Kageko to go with her friend Hiruzen. However, despite the obvious delays that resulted from the huge fish tank the boy was carrying, Vincente still had yet to arrive. Kageko thought, already taking the probably oppurtunity to think up a couple of pranks for her brother.
A couple minutes of thought was all that Kageko needed to arm herself with a goodly arsenal of pranks to play in Konoha. With her priorities over with, she watched as more shinobi poured in, noticing that Kumo ninjas also seemed to be gathering at Konoha, . One particular shinobi caught her eye, an eleven year old boy who addressed himself as a chuunin and had suddenly appeared in front of the gates after using a jutsu of sorts. Watching silently as he passed into the village, Kageko continued to wait for her older brother to meet up with them.

"The true Demons aren't them," Having finally caught his breath, Hiruzen sat down, unstrapping the large tank of water and colorful carps and goldfish from his back, setting it down before him, almost at the same time unscrewing a large container of loam flakes; it was lunch-time, after all.
"Yeah, but how would've watched 'em for me? You're the only one I trust enough to take care of them for me." It was around then that he suddenly got a cold, tingly feeling run down his spine. He restlessly looked about, and after noticing no further threat, wrote it of as "Looking at the new scenery," if he'd be asked about his sudden alertness.
This didn't stop him from being annoyed at Kageko's older brother. If he hadn't shown up yet, being outrun by a couple of genin, one with a giant aquarium strapped to his back, no less, he had better have been saving an entire country single-handidly, or some other very good reason for being late. He was a Chuunin, for Kami's sake! The only indication of his annoyance was a low, soft growling, though he just continued digging in his bag for some boxed lunches for himself and Kageko.
Upon learning Hiruzen's rather suprising aptitude at making meals, it was quickly decided that he'd make at least most of the bentos for the mildly-breif trip, something he did only under the intense puppy-eyed gaze of his current best friend, as well as threats of multiple pranks. He was still oblivious that Kageko was even attempting to prank him, having somehow foiled every one of her "practical jokes" one way or another, aside from the time when she somehow managed to steal all of his clothes as he was taking a shower.
That's when pretty much the whole of Otogakure found out he cared little of how exposed he was physically, as he did missions for the rest of the day wearing only a pair of his boxers that he had found under his bed. "No... He's right in front of you." {Giant Block of Text no Jutsu~! Except, Hiru-kun doesn't know anyone well enough aside from Kageko to ask to fishsit his new pets. Which reminds me, your fish(I've taken the liberty of calling it Kuro-san) is also in the aquarium at the time being.}

(OOC: Lance, are you trying to kill me? I'm about to die of laughter rofl rofl rofl .)
As she replied with a simply shrug to Hiruzen's first comment, Kageko heard the boy's growl, she had learned by now that he often growled whenever he was aggravated/annoyed, something that she would do every now and then as well but under more stressful conditions. As the girl guessed that the growl was meant to be in annoyance of Vincente, she also noticed that Hiruzen was digging in his bag for the bentos. "Oh, it's lunch already?" Kageko asked as she looked up to see the sun close to its zenith, "Heh, looks like I lost track of the time." With that comment, she plopped herself cross-legged on the ground in front of Hiru. Luckily, they had decided to stop to the side of the road, allowing themselves to wait for Vincente without blocking anyone's way while still having a decent view and be able to spot him when he finally came. "Well then," she made small talk as she waited for her friend, "I guess that it is a good thing that Vincente is late. That way, we can eat our food without having to worry about him gulping it all down at once. I swear, he has a black hole or something for his stomach."
(OOC: Be off for a bit. I have to take care of a couple things in real life.
As for the fish, got it.)

"The true Demons aren't them," He pulled out two small boxes of food, handing one over to Kageko, while keeping the second for himself. He also placed a much larger parcel beside him, with a quick explanation consisting of, "For when that Aniki-no-Baka(Idiotic older brother) finally get's here."
After saying the obligatory "Itadakimasu!", he started eating in the fast, yet refined manner he had picked up from the girl sitting across from him, having eaten with her brother before, and utterly repulsed by the sloppiness, mimicked her for the rest of the week, now being able to keep up with Vincente's insane eating tempo(To a certain degree, anyway), but doing so much more gracefully.
He lowered his chop-sticks as he looked up, deciding to finally answer to her last statement. "Well, he knows that he won't get more than a certain amount from me, so I sure hope he's eaten along the way. Actually, that might be the reason he's late, come to think of it, Geko-chan..." "No... He's right in front of you." {I hadn't realized that was even funny! sweatdrop Sure, it's getting close to work-time for me, anyway.}

(OOC: What else is funny is that you post right when I get online xd .)
Kageko simply nodded as she took the food gratefully and, after saying "Itadakimasu" right when Hiru said it, set to eating her food just as quickly. Finishing a bit later because of attempting and succeeding at doing tricks with her chopsticks while eating the food, Kageko answered, "I just hope he doesn't ravage a poor restaurant… again." She knew that Hiruzen knew what she was talking about. He had been with both her and Vincente and the older boy, who was starving after a mission, had decided to go and raid a restaurant. He had totally ravaged it, or its food supplies at the least, and Kageko had to empty out her wallet to pay for it. "Hey," Kageko asked as she started to pick at the bits and pieces of food that were left over, "Hiru-chan, do you have any ideas for some pranks we can do to Vincente nii-san in this village?" Kageko already had a good idea for one; although, it might be better left off for after the residents of Konoha had gotten to know them.

"The true Demons aren't them," He shuddered as he remember that particular incident, and the two subsequent ones, as well. He apologized for what seemed like hours to the owners and waiters, feeling like he was partly at fault. He was rather embaressed about his Taichou's(He refused to call him Sensei, despite Vincente being his Chuunin leader) eating habits.
Hearing Kageko's question, he grew a mischievious grin, the metaphorical ears in his mind clinking about furiously. Despite being utterly unassuming of his friends attempts on him(Or at least, his dignity, which was bound to fail, seeing his lack thereof), he was remarkably excellent at planning out and coming up with ideas for pranks, many of which where aimed at either of Kageko's brothers, or even that one on Hana-dono, the Otokage. "Thirteen, six of which might be looked down upon here, but seven which I think are doable. Want to scheme until Aniki-taichou get's here?"[/color
Another odd habit of his; he'd come to calling Vincente "Aniki", something which annoyed the older boy at first. If asked, he'd simply shrug and say he didn't know why he did it, but truthfully, he actually cared for the guy(However slightly), and annoying him was a plus, as well. Well, at least until he goes all "Evil-Fire-Being". Then it's every man for himself. "No... He's right in front of you." {Yay~!}

(OOC: Wow, so Vincente is now our squad leader xd ? Also, is "taichou" a synonym for "sensei" and can Kageko also call Vincente "aniki"? Sorry, just curious sweatdrop .)
Hiruzen's shudder simply caused Kageko to shudder as well as she remembered the very same incidents. She had apologized as furiously as well, though not as much as Hiru had, while chastising Vincente at the same time. Honestly, she had doubts about who was the demon of the family.
Kageko nodded with a devilish grin, "Give me the best one that's doable here. We'll save the rest for when the village is more familiar with us," as she leaned in to hear Hiruzen's plan.
(OOC: Pm me the plans please. We don't want Ultima to find out about his little present now, do we twisted ?)

 Vincente Valtieri Otogakure | Curse Mark of Gaia | Chunnin "Sis! Up here!" Vincente called, he was hanging upside-down from the gates. "Sorry I took so long, I wanted to bring the fortune in a giant treasure chest, but apparently that'll draw too much attention." He said, he was not one to leave money lying around. "On the way I spent around 100 to 155 dollars, but who can blame me?" He jumped down from the gates and rolled into a sitting position. "So what's goin' on?"

Kageko simply sighed and face-palmed herself, "Vincente…. You do know that both Mom and Dad are looking after the money and will be sending us a monthly allowance while we stay in Konoha, right? You didn't need to…," then the amount that Vincente had spent hit her, "Wait a minute! What?! How did you spend that much?! Don't tell me that you ravaged another restaurant!".
(OOC: Ultima, what are we going to do with the parents? Are we going to say that the Valtieri family has an estate in Fire Country or are we just going to say that the mom and dad stayed in Oto and will be sending the two of us a monthly allowance or something?)

Vincente Valtieri Otogakure | Curse Mark of Gaia | Chunnin Vincente shrugged. "I didn't do anything, they needed to clean so I helped them out a bit." Vincente didn't look like he'd done anything. "And I bought this really expensive band so all of my hair didn't flow down, which is why it looks the same after so long." Vincente stood up. "And this is my monthly allowance, can't you tell?" He asked with a yawn. "And speaking of restaurants, anybody else hungry?" (They are staying in Oto, but I'm keeping my estate!)
